Hey it's cold out here!!

 

Mabel waiting to be milked. She can be impatient if I am too slow with Galdys. She has figured out how to open the door and peek in to see what we are up to. She has such a personality.

Stewy

We measured Stewy and he is at about 950 pounds!!! I can't get over how big he has gotten.

We have company!

This is Rex. He has been here on the farm to help the ladies. He is a real ham and has been so much fun. Every time I go in the pasture I always get a good laugh because he is doing something. For example, he likes to rearrange the round pen or wear a piece of cattle panel for a hat. He has been here for several months and now we have to say goodbye. I hope he was a good sort of guy and the girls are in the "family way". I will miss his antics but am looking forward to just my sweet cows in the pasture.

Where have I been?

Summer has passed by without much warning. With the CSA and the farmers markets, the busy schedule let things pass much too quickly. We had a pretty good year for the CSA and the markets were good as well. I want to make some changes for next year but overall things were smooth sailing.
Farm life is wonderful. The cows are doing great. We had a bull here for a visit and are hoping that the girls are settled.
